| - Hubby & I stopped by for a late lunch yesterday and had a very mixed bag of quality.
Ordered two nigiri, the smoked salmon was excellent but the albacore was so vinegared up that it even disgusted me.. and I love vinegar.
Informed our server, Justen, and he said he would inform them of this problem. Then, entrees arrived.. hubby's Grilled Ribeye Sandwich worked for him, but my Seared Scallops & Bacon with Citrus Aioli was beyond boring. While I didn't expect much flavor from the scallops, there was absolutely none from the aioli, and barely any even from the bacon. It was ridiculously tiny, four small scallops that were butterflied and then topped.. less food than any one nigiri. I added a bit of lime juice from the plate decor, and that helped a teensy bit.. but not enough.
In the meantime, our server has disappeared on us.. we haven't seen diddly since our entrees arrived and I mentioned the vinegar overdose. Neither of us had any soda left in our glasses, but nothing we could do about it.
We finally flagged Justen down and requested our check, at which point he offered us soda refills. Really? There was no attempt to offer a replacement on the failed nigiri, there was no service while we were dining.. hope he enjoyed the tiny tip, as I deducted the nigiri from that portion of the tab.
Will we return? Nope. One good nigiri and one decent sandwich doesn't make up for boring food and pathetic service.
